As the commitment to heels falls by the wayside, more casual workwear staples have emerged, including white sneakers. “The shift has been towards a more casual overall aesthetic across the board on Wall Street,” Cadmus said. “The clean white sneaker has been trending for both men and women.” It’s a look that works when paired with more formal pieces, which clients feel reluctant to wear now that the office aesthetic has relaxed, she said.
Sofield has noticed this trend, but still feels like she has to adhere to a certain standard of footwear professionalism for in-person meetings. “When I met my clients at the at the big industry meeting, they were all wearing sneakers,” she said. “I can’t, because they’re our clients so I have to look nice.”Article content
The data, however, suggest that women are buying high heels again, just not for work. According to a July report by market research firm NPD Group, higher heels are gaining market share over lower heels as women buy shoes for special occasions. “Dress footwear sales are also shifting away from pumps — a more conservative and work-oriented style — to open-toe sandals, which are more occasion-oriented,” said Beth Goldstein, an analyst at NPD.
Whether for work or for play, wearing heels after a long hiatus puts you at risk of rocking a much less trendy shoe: a medical boot. “Heels are going to make you less stable, more likely to have lateral ankle sprains and other kinds of problems,” especially if you’re out of practice, Dr. Hanna said. Nearly two months after the conference, Sofield said her feet still hurt when she wakes up in the morning. As she lines up another visit to the doctor to see if she needs another round of cortisone shots, she said she won’t be going back to the closet full of three-inch pumps she used to wear before the pandemic. “I have a pile of them that are going to Goodwill,” she said.
